Default squeeky brakes

Ever since I bought my 02 gt, the brakes make a pile of noise. Changed them already a couple of times and they never stopped. Any suggestions??? It's driving me nuts. Sweet car but sounds like an econobox pulling up to a light.

did you change pads and rotors or just one or the other. also anti seize helps. you need to put it on the contact points where the caliper meets the pads. should help the squeeking.

rotors turned, brakes new all around. Toyota mech told me that if I had a squeaker it would be one forever. Every time I step on the brakes it chirps steady. Not like the squealer plates intermittent, it's solid screaming until I stop. Sounds like I am too cheap to do a brake job on the car. It used to only do it in reverse after a couple of years it is doing it in all directions and really loudly. Will try the anti seize though. If that doesn't work I'm thinking of turning it to a Flintstone car and using my feet to stop it. Nobody would hear the screaming over my music. lol Thanks for the suggestion.
